Obama Messes with Prop 8
Obama administration files high court brief urging resumption of same-sex marriage in Calif
WASHINGTON (AP) _ The Obama administration on Thursday is widely expected to urge the Supreme Court to strike down California 's ban on gay marriage, a case that could have sweeping implications for the right of same-sex couples to wed.
The administration's friend-of-the-court brief would not be legally binding but could have some measure of influence on the court when it considers the constitutionality of the Proposition 8 measure in March. The brief would also offer clearer insight into President Barack Obama's evolving views on gay marriage. Obama supports same-sex unions but has said marriage should be governed by states.
